The Dayton Memorial Library celebrates the diversity represented in our Regis community and seeks to create an inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome. In October the library observes Hispanic Heritage Month, LGBTQ History Month, and Disability Awareness Month. We take the opportunity during this month to announce the launching of our reading list on the History of Inequity. This reading list has been curated by the librarians at Dayton Memorial Library as a selection of materials addressing issues relating to diversity, inclusion, inequity, and oppression from across disciplines and decades. Most of these resources are written from a scholarly/academic perspective, and many of these items are intersectional in nature and will fall within more than one category listed here.

The error is caused by browsers beginning to roll out a new security measure; each browser is handling the transition a little bit differently. Chrome has been rolling out this new security protocol fairly consistently while in Firefox the new security measure has been rolled out less consistently. We are not seeing the error in Internet Explorer at this time.

There is an issue with linking from the article linker (when you click on Check for Full Text) to article links for journals in ScienceDirect. If you click on an article link, this message displays when you pass through to ScienceDirect:

Sorry, your request can not be processed due to a system problem. Contact the Help Desk if the problem persists. [SD-009]

Our provider will be putting a fix in place on Feb. 21st.

For the links that result in the SD-009 error, the simplest workaround is to use the Journal link instead and then navigate to the volume/issue. While not ideal, you can still get to the full text.

Open Access Week is an annual global event now in its eighth year, promoting Open Access as the new default in scholarship and research. It is an opportunity for the academic and research community to learn about the potential benefits of Open Access, to share what they’ve learned with colleagues, and to help inspire wider participation in helping to make Open Access a new norm in scholarship and research.

Regis University Library proudly hosts multiple open access resources in ePublications at Regis University, our institutional repository. Browse our student authored publications that have enduring value as records of original research and are actively read and referred to by Regis University students and faculty, as well as outside researchers across the globe.

Browse articles in Jesuit Higher Education: A Journal (JHE), a scholarly, peer reviewed, open access, online journal focused on the development, advancement, and critique of higher education in the Jesuit tradition.
